New earphone

I bought a new earphone for iPhone.
This is my first time to buy an earphone more than 1000 yen.

Actually I was crazy about sound quality when I was young.
For example, I visited so many sound rooms to check their audio systems and I could distinguish very slight differences between not only speakers but also amplifiers, CD players, or sometimes needles of record players.

Now I just enjoy the sound.

He died of natural resources and the face was calm and smiling.

I reminded a lot of memories such as drinking sake and talking old stories.

Goodbye.
